Electro-Plated Tooling -- Consider Bates Your Original & Replacement Tooling Resource

Diamond and CBN Plated Microsize® bore finishing tools from Bates help you get the job done right the first time. The tools go through the bore only once, removing the prescribed amount of stock to yield a perfectly sized bore in one pass. An expandable Superabrasive sleeve mounted on a tapered arbor, Bates’ Microsize® bore finishing tools overcome even the most difficult bore-sizing and finishing challenges.

The tools excel on tandem bores and parts with keyways. The tools also yield extremely close tolerances and easily handle interrupted cuts. Bates' Microsize® tools are created for operation in typical bore finishing machines, such as Engis, Accu-Cut and Sunnen machines, as well as CNC machining centers. The super-abrasive tools have been successful in bringing new efficiency to fine boring and grinding operations. They may also be used on their own to obtain fast stock removal, or as part of a finishing process following traditional honing.
